Health information systems (HIS) have progressed from being used to manage billing to impacting patient safety and health professionals' job satisfaction. Many decisions are made during project management and the information system lifecycle of a HIS. Medical librarians are underutilized in HIS lifecycles; it may not be clear to stakeholders what they can provide and where their services fit. Medical librarians possess expertise to navigate various search resources and can investigate inquiries during information systems project lifecycles. Librarians can market specific skills to project lifecycle teams such as those involved in computerized provider order entry (CPOE), electronic medication administration record (eMAR) and root cause analysis (RCA). HIS project personnel, including patient safety team members, should make use of medical librarians in phases of health information systems project management. This will help them meet institutional and global objectives for evidence-based use of technology towards improved patient safety.
健康信息系统(HIS)已从用于管理计费发展到影响患者安全和健康专业人员的工作满意度。在HIS的项目管理和信息系统生命周期中会做出许多决策。医学图书馆员在HIS生命周期中的作用未得到充分利用;利益相关者可能不清楚他们能提供什么以及他们的服务适合何处。医学图书馆员拥有驾驭各种搜索资源的专业知识,并且可以在信息系统项目生命周期中调查相关询问。图书馆员可以向项目生命周期团队推销特定技能,例如参与计算机化医嘱录入(CPOE)、电子用药管理记录(eMAR)和根本原因分析(RCA)的团队。包括患者安全团队成员在内的HIS项目人员应在健康信息系统项目管理阶段利用医学图书馆员。这将有助于他们实现基于证据使用技术以提高患者安全的机构和全球目标。
